COSMIC CREATOR

Lauren Faust has been a success in the animation industry for 12 years both as an artist and a writer. Her most recent endeavors have been as Head Writer and Supervising Producer for husband Craig McCracken’s award-winning hit series FOSTER’S HOME FOR IMAGINARY FRIENDS on Cartoon Network. For her work on Foster’s, Lauren has received nominations for four Emmy and three Annie Awards. Previously, she had lent her talents to the popular cartoon series, feature film and marketing sensation THE POWERPUFF GIRLS and as an animator on such feature films as THE IRON GIANT and CATS DON’T DANCE. All the while she has been an avid toy collector with a particular interest in the beloved toys of her childhood, including My Little Pony and Strawberry Shortcake. Her greatest goal as an artist is to offer up to little girls the kind of joy and inspiration she experienced as a child, with images of girls and women as positive, self-affirming, active, individualistic, fun, and even a little edgy.
